MLB The Show 17 Video - Gameplay Improvements & Animations Expansion

[Houston]

I like the idea of the new umpire models as well, even the hair on the umpire is improved and looks like he has a face scan as well.

Around the 50 second mark there's a closeup of that umpire at 1B.

If I remember correctly it was the Dodgers, Rockies, and Yankees that got the Matte update. The Pirates, Dbacks, and Giants already had it (I believe not 100% sure). Yeah I couldn't tell either. I'm guessing from the screenshot you posted it's a no on the 3D logo, but I'm not sweating it. This is probably an older build of the game that was showed.

Actually, I thought the same thing. It looked a little more bare than I remembered, but I checked and nothing changed. The wall color might be a little darker, though. Still not dark enough in my opinion.

I love the new catcher throw meter reminds me of what I sent in to them from MLB 2K same kinda concept, but also when they show the catcher trying a pickoff believe it was Kluber it looks like the games in real time same goes for when the catcher throws looks like the games in Cinematic real time.

You might be onto something here, it really does look like the sleeves might be shorter, unless my eyes are deceiving me.

Everything looks awesome except the flags at progressive field are still three giant American flags instead of one American flag, the state flag, and city flag.

Maybe this will be updated in the final build?

It also looked like there were new catcher animations for stance and receiving pitches. Hope that wasn't just in my head.

Looks good!

I hope and guess the new presentation(hopefully MLB Network) isn't in yet? Unless they tie it to certain games(like the weekends or whenever they typically broadcast). Noticed the new score-bug, so hopefully that is just a placeholder for now.
